Ursa One and Ursa Two

Your Character's Name: Ursa

---

“Winnie the Pooh is a boy.”

I looked at my dad. “So?”

“So? You can’t call your female bear Winnie!”

“Well it’s not like Christopher Robbins called him Winnie! He called his bear Pooh!”

“He did, didn’t he?”

“Yes, he did! So I can call my bear Winnie if I want.”

“I still vote for Ursa…”

“If you like Ursa so much, why don’t you call me that? I’m going to be a bear-lady from now on, aren’t I?”

“I thought you loved your name!”

“I do! But I am not naming my bear Ursa.”

“The constellation isn’t a lady with a bear; it’s just a bear!”

“Well since there are two bear constellations, Winnie can be Ursa Major and I can be Ursa Minor.”

“That’s too confusing. Do I call you two Ursa One and Ursa Two? Or Major and Minor?”

“No! You call her Winnie and me Haley.”

“Winnie and Haley…”

“Haley and Winnie, because I’m the human…”

“Fine. Haley and Winnie.”

“Yeah. That sounds wrong. But Winnie and Haley doesn’t sound any better.”

“Fine, then. You win. Ursa and Winnie?”

“Really?”

“Yeah. But I’m still going to call you Haley when you’re in trouble.”

“Jeez, thanks, Dad.”
